I must be missing something. I’ve been trying for too long to figure out how to get a language server in emacs, specifically for python, but at this point I’d be happy to see anything work. I am so fucking sick of following written online tutorials that never work but I need to use something other than vs code, so the “trying to get emacs to fucking work” effort will continue.

I gave up on regular emacs because there seems to be no way to install lsp-mode on it. doomemacs seems to be a more refined easy-to-use version and has a working package manager so I started using that. I finally did manage to get lsp-mode installed in doomemacs but that’s just the first step of what is a convoluted multi-step process and I don’t know what to do next.

Can someone link me to a definitive, actually working, actually correct video tutorial of how to get a language server on doomemacs?

    Apologies if you already know this, but just making sure: A language server is first installed independently from its emacs/vim/etc integration.

    You have lsp-mode set up. Did you install python-lsp-server and just need a guide to point lsp-mode at it?
